I think that $500 a year should be the max. If your athletic program is getting 75% of its funding from the students then that is not good. I feel that your alumni and fans should pick up the burden not the students. That's means that a 4 year student would be paying almost $6000 to their athletic program before they graduate. Virginia passed a new law that limits the amount of money a school can use to fund their athletic budgets from the students. JMU was getting 80% of its funding from the students
